Hey LesGreat looking amp. Puts my bud box design to shame. I've got something very similar, but it uses a 6SL7 in SRPP as the driver as my preamp is low gain. I use no electros anywhere (PIOs in the power supply and films as bypasses/coupling caps). AC really does sound better than DC (if done properly there is no hum).
Low parts count, low power designs like this offer incredible clarity, however, they are also easy to screw up. Cheap electros as cathode bypasses will instantly destroy the sound (my my 2 cents).
Just as the 2A3 is a major step up from the 300B, the 45 is a step up from the 2A3. I don't think it gets better than the 45, but I do think the 10/10Y is in the same league.
Regards. Doug
